    PLAN B #863: Faishal’s Resignation: A Pity for the Malay-Muslim Community?

    This week, one story dominated the headlines: Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim’s resignation. After Min. K. Shanmugam described Faishal’s messages to a female member of the public as “objectively inappropriate and questionable”, many were left asking what exactly was said. Yet beyond the questions, the overwhelming reaction, particularly within the Malay-Muslim community, has been one of shock and disappointment. For many, Faishal’s resignation marks the loss of a leader who had shown genuine commitment and dedication to the community, despite the lapse in judgment that ultimately led to his exit.

    PLAN B #862: Singapore Has Free Speech, But It Isn’t the Same Everywhere

    With Bloomberg and its reporter ordered to pay $230,000 each to Ministers K. Shanmugam and Tan See Leng, it’s worth asking: what does “free speech” actually mean in Singapore? While many Singaporeans consume Western media, free speech doesn’t work the same way here. Bloomberg relied on a UK legal defence called “Reynolds Privilege”, which protects journalists who publish defamatory material if it is considered “responsible journalism” in the public interest. However, Singapore’s High Court ruled that this defence does not apply here. So when we talk about “free speech”, are we all talking about the same thing, or viewing it through different legal and cultural lenses?

    PLAN B #861: Can Hate Comments Actually Help Your Business? Ministry of Spud Thinks So

    ou’ve probably seen Ministry of Spud’s loaded potatoes all over your feed, and the long queues that come with them. For founders Khalil and Nana, going viral has fuelled the brand’s rapid rise. But for Khalil, the online fame has also come with criticism, with some branding him a “bully” over his blunt replies to commenters. His response? The criticism doesn’t bother him, in fact, he says he may even enjoy it because “at least they’re talking about me.” In this episode, we explore how social media has become the secret ingredient behind MOS’ success, and uncover the real story behind the closure of Tomaz.

    #860: Harta, Amanah dan Warisan

    Faraid selalu jadi punca pergaduhan dalam keluarga. Ramai fokus pada siapa dapat lebih atau kurang, tapi jarang kita fikir tentang amanah yang datang bersama setiap bahagian. Harta pusaka bukan milik kita selamanya. Jangan sampai harta yang ditinggalkan menjadi sebab hubungan adik-beradik dan keluarga pula yang hancur.

    #859 Behind The Glamour: The brutal reality of the legal sector

    Singapore’s legal profession is confronting a difficult question: why are so many lawyers choosing to leave? A recent study has renewed attention on the pressures faced within the industry and for young lawyers, the transition into working life can be overwhelming. Hostile work environments, demanding clients and constant pressure can quickly drain the passion that first drew them to the profession. While steps are being taken to reduce attrition, is the industry prepared to confront toxic work mindsets and rethink the structures that continue to push lawyers to the brink.

    #858 Singapore’s Bureaucracy vs Art: Can Creativity Survive?

    When Marcus’ PowerJet artwork outside an MRT station was reported to the police and subsequently whitewashed, the internet rallied behind him almost instantly. Much of the outrage was directed at the alleged “Karen” who complained, while others criticised SMRT, with some netizens speculating that the transport operator had been involved in the artwork’s removal. But beyond the controversy lies a bigger question: in a society known for its strict regulations, bureaucracy, and cautious approach to public spaces, can creativity truly thrive, or is Singapore’s art scene constantly fighting for room to exist?

    #857 Are Run Clubs the New Social Media Status Symbol?

    You’ve probably noticed the surge of running groups across Singapore’s central districts in recent months. But long before it became the latest fitness trend, runners like Izuan were already building communities around the sport. Widely regarded as one of the OGs of the Malay-Muslim running scene, he shares his perspective on how the community has evolved, and whether the boom is truly about health and fitness, or increasingly shaped by social media and the desire for online validation.

    #856 Are We Witnessing a New Form of Racism?

    A growing number of alleged China-originated videos targeting Singapore’s Indian community have drawn criticism from MPs, including Edwin Tong. Some see Singapore as culturally aligned with China because of its Chinese-majority population. But Singapore has long defined itself as a multicultural nation with its own identity. As online narratives become more divisive and anti-Indian sentiments spread across social media, a question emerges: Is this what modern racism looks like?
